Abstract: This holder is mainly used on city streets. It has a cylindrical wall provided with a bottom closure supported by a stand adapted to be fixed onto a sidewalk or the like. The stand has a top plate on which the bottom closure rests and is transversely shiftable and rotatable relative to the same. An annular flange is spacedly fixed to the underside of the bottom closure and slidably engages the underside of the stand top plate to prevent tilting of the holder while allowing its shifting and rotation movement. The cylindrical wall of the holder is made of a sheet of rubber recycled from used tires and bent into a cylindrical shape, the sheet being maintained in said shape by an upright member, of H-shaped cross-section, defining opposite channels receiving the adjacent parallel upright edge portions of the sheet and by straps surrounding the sheet and secured to the upright member. The upright member is secured to and upstands from the bottom closure.
